One, maybe two if one of them is a non-working day - pretty much what we get!

In Seattle maybe just one or two as long as I have them off and I can get to a lake or river for some fun in the water on the hot day. In a drier heat, such as in Eastern Washington, I'm fine for as many happen. Once you get over 100 though its a little much.

I could live my whole life between 59F and 89F and be happy.
^^ ?

Funny that you are a Canadian living in Egypt
and I would be upset if I never saw 96 F/36 C ever again in my lifetime.
If I'm not working, 96 F is a wonderful temperature.

I could be happy living my whole life closer to say 69-99 F.

Temps between 50 F and 70 F are my favorite. But here in Nebraska, the temp in the summer can get to 105 F with humidity. When you walk out of an air conditioned building into that kind of heat it just like being covered with a steamy hot wet blanket. It's a shock!

The number of days above 90 F change from year to year, but last year I believe that it was about 30 days.

15 maybe; not much different from what I have now. I care more about number of days in the 80s, though.

None, ever, preferably. Even 80 is way too hot.

None. I'd like to never be in temps over 80F ever again, personally.

None. None over 80, and ideally, none over 70!

Yes this would be a great climate! Mostly warm, with an occasional refreshing cool day in the mix.
